What Our Statesmen Drink.

The President and his official adj
visers are not unit upon the drink
question. Mr.. Gle, Gland likes glass
of plebeian beer, but since his in.
creasing stoutness he has used it i'll
very moderate quantities. He has
no love for the stronger drinks, and
confines himself almost exclusively
to malt liquors. Mrs. Cleveland is q
strict temperance woman, and does
not drink even the light wines. Sec.
rotary Bayard likes red wines, and q
glass of good old Burgundy is his
delight. Secretary Manning, like. the
President, is fond Of malt liquors,
with an occasional glass of light
wine. Secretary Whitney's wine is
champagne. He sips all the regular
drinks on the table, but invariably
saves himself for the champagne.
Whitney has grown remarkably
stout within the last few months
Certainly no man in the cabinet has
been SO high liver as he. Score
tary Endicott treats his aristocratic
stomach with a choice selection Of
old and rare wines. He is a con
noisseur, and his judgment is proba-
bly, second only to that of Justice
Gray, of the Supreme Court, and
Senator Hale, both of whom are ex-
perts. Both Of these gentlemen,
however, paled before Presiden' Ar
thur, OF whom a celebrated wine
merchant said: "He is the finest
Judge of Madeiras in the country,
and his opinion upon other wines is
almost as good" Secretary lamar
hasn't any particular liquor. He
does not linger over the wine cup,
neither does Postmaster-General Vi
las, but neither will shy glass of
rare vintage. Acknowledgement Gar
land is fond of neither wine nor malt
liquors. He drinks plain whiskey,
with very little water in it.

So Lila Redburn was called in
a dimpled, dark eyed girl, with coral
red lips and shy, bewitching way
Of looking at you from under her
long eyelashes, and told without
much unnecessary preamble that
she was to be transferred to the roof
of Miss Abigail Agnew, her adopted
fathers aunt.
She listened quietly; Lila was
not one of those who wear their
hearts and tongues upon their Slew
es; but her poor little heart sank
down, down, like lump Of lead in
her bosom. And that night she
cried herself to sleep.
Miss Abigail Agnew was sitting in
her curious little room that evening
when Lila Redburn was announced.
1t was quaint room, and Miss
Agnew was quaint woman, shrivel-
ed, ancient and bowed over, with
gold spectacles cleaning before her
eyes, and priceless yellow lace, quill
ed after an antique fashion, around
her neck.
Come in, Lila, come in said the
old lady. You see | know your

Three days afterward Mrs. Black
received short note from Miss Alb

One minute Mrs. Black sat twist

long, low whistle-and then she
had resolved upon her tactics.
